title: Childhood sexual experiences reported by male psychiatric patients.
abstract: One hundred adult male psychiatric patients were investigated concerning their recollections of defined sexual activities occurring with adults before the age of sixteen. Twenty-three subjects reported such events. The events were remembered as having been mostly distressing at the time but their later significance is unclear.
